    I have no issue with the loser getting a point in an OT game. Hockey is a unique sport in the way the standings work, and I like it. I would, however like to see the 3-2-1 point system adopted. It would cause teams to actually play for a win in regulation, and if not they will lose out on the full points they could have got for the win.

      Chicago clinches a playoff berth with a 5-4 win against Nashville. Of course the Hawks blew a 4-0 lead with silly turnovers and penalties but a win is a win. I was surprised they put up 5 on Rinne. That doesn't happen too often. Radulov had a sweet goal where he weaved in between 2 defenders and deked Crawford. One of the defenseman was O'Donnell but it was still a great move. I'm still very surprised as how well they have played without Toews.

        Playoff chances officially in the grave this year. Thanks Stamkos.

        A shame too because I can't imagine how insane the MTS Centre would've been for that first home playoff game. Here's hoping we can get in next year.

        Oh, and Victor Hedman is a bitch. Good to see Ladd drop the gloves and give him some solid shots.

          Or we could, you know, not have the shootout or any loser points. That would make way too much sense though.

          I remember when the game itself was exciting enough without having to manufacture it with a one-on-one exhibition.

            Or drop the OT and have 2 points for a win, 1 point for a SO win, 0 points for a loss
